Chapter 218 Yuan Dynasty Candidate
Emperor Zhenwu clapped his hands and said excitedly, "My daughter, listen to me carefully. Shi Temur was a minister of the Yuan Dynasty. He was wise and decisive, just like a wise man on the battlefield. He could solve any problem for you. If you follow him, you can expect to have a good life. Your life will be prosperous. He is in the court, making plans and winning battles thousands of miles away. With him, you will be like having a big tree to take shelter from the wind. You don't have to be afraid of any storms."
Mizukage curled his lips, tilted his head, and said unconvincedly: "Father, please don't just look at his merits. The talent of Dashi Temur is indeed admirable, but he is too serious. He has a stern face all day long, as if someone owes him eight hundred dollars. You tell me, how depressing it is to face a poker face all day long. I am not in the bitter melon greenhouse, why should I face such a serious person all day long. I hope my husband can have some humor and fun to make life full of fun. Otherwise, life will be so boring. Just like boiled water, tasteless Look at that young couple, they are laughing and playing all day long, how interesting. If I followed Dashitemuel, I would feel like I was attending a serious memorial service all day long, without any energy at all. This won’t do, I don’t want to live such a dull life at such a young age. As the saying goes, a smile makes you look ten years younger. I have to find someone who can make me laugh, not someone who has a tense face all day long. If he is so serious all the time, I will be hurt by him. It’s like asking me to walk in shoes that don’t fit, it’s so uncomfortable.”
Emperor Zhenwu raised his thumb with a smile on his face, his eyes sparkling with admiration, and he praised excitedly: "My dear daughter! Tai Buhua is not a simple person! He is a famous minister of the Yuan Dynasty. He is not only talented, wise and brave, but also has an upright heart that shines like gold. His noble character is simply admirable! Such a person is really like a rare treasure. Even if you look for him everywhere with a lantern, it is probably difficult to find him! Look, nowadays this world is complicated and people's hearts are unpredictable, but to have such an upright person by your side, isn't it a great happiness and peace of mind? He is like that righteous knight, wearing armor, holding a sharp blade, firmly guarding you and our entire family, making people feel warm and at ease!"
Shuiying shook his head and said worriedly, "Father, you are right. Tai Buhua's character is indeed admirable, but he is too upright. In this complex society, it is easy to suffer losses. Think about it, there are all kinds of people in this society. Those cunning guys are like loaches, slippery. Tai Buhua is so upright, so he will become the first rafter to stand out - rot first. I hope my husband can be more flexible and smooth, so that we can better protect our family. Otherwise, we will be plotted against one day without knowing it. This is too much. Life is not a game, you can't just rely on courage and integrity. You have to be a little smart, otherwise how can you survive in this complicated world. He is so straightforward, if he offends someone he shouldn't offend, then we will be in trouble. It's like walking on a tightrope on the edge of a cliff, too dangerous. I don't want to be nervous all day long, I want a stable life. As the saying goes, a real man can bend and stretch. It's not a big deal that he has always been upright. I still hope to find someone who knows how to adapt, so that our life can go smoothly. "
Emperor Zhenwu looked solemn, and slowly said: "My daughter, listen to what your father has to say. Yu Que was a loyal minister of the Yuan Dynasty, and he also had great literary achievements. Such a person is really of integrity and talent, just like the brightest star in the night sky, shining brightly. He is so loyal to the country, just like Hachiko, who never leaves his country. This integrity is really strong, harder than steel. With such a person around you, what are you afraid of? His talent is even more incredible, he speaks eloquently and writes like a god. When you are with him, you can wait to be influenced by the atmosphere of culture, maybe you can also become a great talent."
Shuiying's eyes were slightly red, and she said softly, "Father, I know everything you said. Yu Que's loyalty is indeed touching, but his life is too tragic. Think about it, living in that tense atmosphere all day, he may face danger at any time. Isn't this asking for trouble? I don't want to experience such pain and suffering, I just want my life to be full of sunshine and happiness. How nice it is to laugh every day. I don't want to be like the heroine of the sad drama, crying all day long. It's like asking me to walk on a tightrope without giving me a safety belt, which is too scary. What I want is a stable and happy life, not a thrilling adventure. As the saying goes, the plain is the truth. I don't want to be worried all day long, I just want to find someone who can make me live in peace. He is too tragic, I can't stand it. What if something happens to him one day, what should I do? Isn't this asking for trouble for myself? I'd better find an ordinary person and live our little life."
The corners of Emperor Zhenwu's mouth slightly raised, revealing a kind and amiable smile, and he said softly: "My beloved daughter, Li Haowen is indeed an outstanding scholar in the Yuan Dynasty! His knowledge is vast and boundless, as dazzling as the vast galaxy. If you are with him, it will be like being in an endless treasure house of knowledge, where you can absorb many precious essences. You will see, isn't this a wonderful thing? It is like having a living 'mobile library' that can be read anytime and anywhere! Such an opportunity is rare, and you must not miss it easily."
Shuiying pouted and said unhappily, "Father, don't just look at his strengths. Li Haowen's knowledge is indeed admirable, but he is too obsessed with academic research. He only knows how to read books and study all day long. How can he have time to accompany me? I didn't find a husband, but a nerd. He is like a worm that got into a book and can't get out. What I want is someone who can care about me more in life, chat with me, go shopping, and see the scenery, not a nerd who is accompanied by books all day long. It's like I bought a mobile phone, but it can only read e-books and has no other functions. What's the use? I don't want to be alone in an empty house all day, bored to death. As the saying goes, companionship is the longest confession of love. He is busy studying all day long, how can he have time to confess? I'd better find someone who understands life and cares about others."
Emperor Zhenwu's eyes were filled with endless expectations and hopes. He said affectionately, "My dear daughter, Chen Lu is a famous literary master in the Yuan Dynasty! His works are as beautiful and melodious as the sounds of nature. If you can marry such a talented man and beautiful woman, then every day of your life, you can immerse yourself in those beautiful and poetic words. How intoxicating and poetic it would be!"
Shuiying shrugged and said disapprovingly: "Father, Chen Lu's literary talent is indeed good, but he is too idealistic. Living in his own fantasy world all day long, how can he face the daily necessities of life? He is like a fairy floating in the clouds, not eating fireworks of this world. What I want is someone who can be down-to-earth and work hard for our lives. Otherwise, how can we live? We can't fill our stomachs with poems and songs. It's like I bought a beautiful vase, which looks good but is not practical. I'd better find a pragmatic person who can face various problems in life with me. As the saying goes, ideals are full and reality is skinny. He is too idealistic and is not suitable for living at all. I don't want to follow him and daydream all day long. What I want is a real life."
The Emperor Zhenwu's face was filled with pride. He straightened his body and shouted in a loud voice: "My beloved daughter! Gong Shitai is an outstanding person in the Yuan Dynasty. He is talented and virtuous. Such an excellent person is rare! Therefore, you must not miss this opportunity!" While speaking, the Emperor Zhenwu stared at his daughter with a sharp gaze, his eyes full of expectation and satisfaction. It was as if he was conveying a belief to her - this is a beautiful marriage given by fate, and she should grasp it tightly and not miss it easily.
Mizukage frowned and complained, "Father, Gong Shitai has many advantages, but he is too busy with work. Think about it, he is busy working outside all day, how can he have time to accompany me. I didn't find a husband, I found a workaholic. This house is cold and deserted, there is no home feeling at all. What I want is someone who can spend more time with me and run our family together. It's like I bought a big house, but no one lives in it, what's the use? As the saying goes, home is the harbor of the soul. He is not at home all day, and there is no ship docking in my harbor. I'd better find someone who cares about the family, so that I can feel the warmth of home."
Emperor Zhenwu nodded slightly and said admiringly: "My daughter, please listen to me carefully. Zhou Deqing is a phonologist and has made great contributions to the development of Yuan opera. He is like a bright star in the night sky, shining brightly. His knowledge is enormous! In the field of phonology, he is like an invincible hero, wielding a sword to cut through thorns and open up a new world. Just imagine how powerful someone must be to have such achievements in a field. His knowledge is as vast and boundless as the sea, and unfathomable. Being with him, you might be able to benefit from his knowledge and become more cultured."
Shuiying sighed and said helplessly: "Father, I understand what you said. Zhou Deqing's academic achievements are indeed worthy of praise, I don't deny that. But he is too focused on his own research field. It's like being cast a spell by phonology all day long, and he can't get out of it. It's like getting stuck in a horn and can't get out no matter how hard you try. I hope my husband can pay more attention to life and create a better future with me. Instead of just studying those phonology all day long, how boring. Think about it, there are so many beautiful things in life, but he only has eyes for phonology. Isn't this picking up sesame seeds and losing watermelons? What I want is someone who can watch the sunrise and sunset with me and go to the market together , a person who likes to travel around, rather than a nerd who stares at books and notes all day. It's like I bought a high-tech robot, but it can only do one thing. What's the use of it? As the saying goes, life is not just about the present, but also about poetry and the distance. He only stares at the phonology in front of him all day, so how can he have the mind to look at poetry and the distance. I don't want to live such a monotonous life with him. What I want is a colorful and surprising life. He is so focused on phonology, so our lives will become a stagnant pool of water without any waves. This won't do. I still have to find someone who understands the fun of life and can swim with me in the ocean of life, rather than someone who only knows how to flutter in a small pond of academics. "
Shuiying paused, and then said, "Look at those young couples, they love each other all day long and do all kinds of interesting things together. But if I follow Zhou Deqing, I can only watch him stare at those phonetic symbols, and I will be so bored that mushrooms will grow on him. This is not the life I want. As the saying goes, different people have different tastes. But I, a 'little vegetable', don't like to stay with the 'big carrot' of phonology all day long. What I want is someone who can go crazy and play with me and enjoy life together. He is so focused on academics, how can he have time to go crazy and play with me. It's like I want to go to the amusement park, but he takes me to the library. How can I let him down? I don't want to live such a boring life. I want a life full of vitality and passion. Otherwise, what's the point of living like this? I'd better find someone who is more suitable for me, who can perform with me on the stage of life, rather than someone who can only study silently in the background of academia."
Emperor Zhenwu stroked his beard and said with emotion: "My dear daughter, look at Zhu Yuanzhang, he is an extraordinary figure. Back then, he was a commoner, penniless and had nothing, just like a newly unearthed potato. But he relied on his own ability to start from scratch, overcoming all obstacles along the way, just like a loach leaping over the dragon gate, making a gorgeous turn. He established the Ming Dynasty abruptly, how amazing is that! His great talent and strategy are just like a tiger with wings - amazing! He was so majestic and commanding on the battlefield, just like the domineering president in the TV series, full of domineering. If you have such a man as your husband, you can expect to eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks, and your life will definitely be prosperous."
